Københavnske Death Valley Sleepers spiller psykedelisk, drømmende støjrock med poppede melodier. Inspirationen kommer fra den amerikanske modkultur, psych'ens udskejelser, såvel som støjrockens fandenivoldskhed. Bandet beskriver sig selv således: "En fest i døgndrift, der opløser realiteter og truer med evig opløsning og forfald. En følelse af at være urørlig, ung og fri. Høj på 'kærligheds drugs' dag efter dag." Det psykedeliske bliver bl.a. hjulpet på vej af eksotiske instrumtner som sitar og tambura samt effekter, der er kørt baglæns. Death Valley Sleepers trækker også på old school break beats samt 90'er-bølgen med bands som fx [...]

Voice sucks. Plain and simple. I cannot emphasize enough how seriously I hate those "become famous overnight" TV programs. But as much as I hate to admit it, Voice does have its few bright moments. Some of the songs performed by the contestants have been pretty OK and have saved me for some hard work and introduced my oldest daughter (she's 9 years old) to a string of new songs and artists (yesterday she asked if I could put some songs by The Raveonettes on her iPod touch). Finally [...]

Si chiude con una raccolta "Rarities and B.Sides" il 2011 dei The Raveonettes . La band danese che si muove fra rock e shoegaze style ( Jesus and The Mary Chain , Ride e Telescopes i loro possibili riferimenti) pubblica questa raccolta di 27 brani con diverse chicche. I Raveonettes quest'anno avevano fatto uscire l'album "Raven in the Grave" oltre ad aver rgeistrato una traccia per la colonna sonora del [...]
Como habitual, fica por cá o resumo do que de mais importante se passou na minha página alternativa do Facebook. A semana não trouxe muita actividade a esta página e continuou a ser preenchida com algumas músicas constam da minha lista pessoal das 40 músicas que mais curti em 2011. Refiro no entanto alguns temas extra que poderiam eventualmente ter sido incluídos na lista mencionada e que

Pulling off Christmas songs is not an easy thing to do. According to one study , holiday themes make for some of the most unappealing music ever . New Christmas songs are usually pretty horrible and worthless, and covering the classics that we've all heard a million times just seems pointless most of the time. But this kind of talk is for the grinches. Every now and then, a band gets it right, and since it's Christmas, we've put together a few holiday songs that we actually enjoyed. From Zooey in a little red dress doing [...]
Merry Xmas! <3, Melon + Basil

Wikipedia Good: the holiday season is just lousy with cover versions. Bad: they've all been posted by every blog under the mistletoe ad nauseum. So while in past years I've done mini-omnibus holiday mixes - 2010 and 2008 are still up - this year I'll just focus on one song, Darlene Love's most famous contribution to the classic Phil Spector -assembled A Christmas Gift To You , and four diverse covers of it. Slow Club do the most faithful [...]

The holiday season is upon us (also basketball season, finally). But mostly, it's the season of ugly sweaters, drunk uncles, and, if you're a teenager, enough gift cards to paper your walls because nobody knows what to get you. We here at The Wild Honey Pie are better at Christmas shopping than your great Aunt Mildred, though. We put together a holiday playlist full of classics and indie favorites that will keep your earbuds warm when the weather outside starts to get frightful. There's no better soundtrack to accompany the decking of halls, the nogging of eggs, [...]

Ho ho ho, assholes! With the Christmas holiday coming up this weekend and we're already two days deep up on the Hanukkah tip, it's very much time to drop the annual The Decibel Tolls Holiday Mixer . You know the deal - a carefully curated collection of skewed, brain-burning, monolithic Christmas gems that totally sleigh. Get it?! Sleigh? Slay? It's a homophone, you guys! Ugh... never mind. Tough crowd. Anyway, these yule-time canticles exalted on high can crush shopping malls and magically spike egg nog, true story. For this year's mixer, you'll recognize you'll recognize some jams from previous year's mixers, [...]
![[Listen] The Raveonettes: "Honey, I Never Had You"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3946104_lg.jpg)
Hace unas semanas The Raveonettes saco este extenso compilado de rarezas y b-sides que han venido lanzando desde hace mas de 10 años y por supuesto, esto solamente era para los verdaderos fans fans de este duo ya que solamente editaron un numero de copias bastaante limitado pero, pues, como la mayoria de estos tracks se pueden encontrar muuuy facil por todo el internet, obviamente ya pueden encontrar en distintos sitios este compilado en descarga gratuita simple y sencillamente titulado "Rarities & B-Sides". Y como las novedades musicales en estas ultimas semanas ha sido ya muy poca, he [...]

Sharin and Sune recorded a special acoustic session in the entrance area of the Vega Venue in Copenhagen recently. Here is Railroad Tracks, from their recently released Rarities & B-Sides.

The Raveonettes have released their 27 track double CD B-Sides & Rarities just in time for Christmas. Normally we are not big fans of the repackaged, re-issued, or the "Live at (insert venue here)" holiday stuff, but we are happy to make an exception for this album. You can stream 12 tracks from the record below, and you can, and should, purchase it HERE. It would make a great Christmas gift (not so subtle hint). The Raveonettes - Rarities & B-Sides (Selección) by EDPMC [...]
It's incredible how many lovely covers of traditional holiday songs - Christmas and everything else under the sun - popped into our inbox this year. Just as family get-togethers, work potlucks and visions of sugarplums are traditions every December, so are the renditions of classics like "Frosty The Snowman" and "White Christmas" by underground talents [...]
It's that time of year again: Reindeers and lights everywhere, and long lists of presents… especially from my children. For my part, I just want 2012 to be as much of a "party year" as 2011 has been - or better even! I have a tough job (I may have ...

It's almost the season to be jolly, but just before the holiday season we are in the midst of "the list." Yes music mags/zines and blogs are full of endless lists, lists about the best albums, best gigs, best songs, lists about lists. It could leave you feeling quite listless and we can't have that, so , here's our list, we've even checked it twice! Yup it's that vertigo inducing career high that results in being presented with a special VPME trophy ( known colloquially as a " Pipster " ) we therefore present the music that touched, inspired [...]
